Chinese billionaire reportedly sires more than 100 surrogate kids in US, hopes they’ll marry Elon Musk’s children
A Chinese billionaire reportedly behind more than 100 U.S.-born children through surrogacy agencies has ambitious plans for his offspring, including the possibility of intermarriage with Elon Musk’s children to create a sprawling family dynasty.
Xu Bo, 48, the reclusive founder of online gaming company Duoyi, calls himself “China’s first father.” According to social-media posts verified by the Wall Street Journal, Xu has expressed a determination to father at least “50 high-quality sons.” His company has stated on social media that Xu has already produced over 100 children through U.S. surrogacy arrangements.
The story gained widespread attention in China after Xu’s ex-girlfriend claimed he had fathered more than 300 children, 11 of whom she said she raised herself. “That number might even be undercounted, but it’s certainly not exaggerated,” she wrote in a post on November 15, according to the India Times.
Xu and his ex are currently involved in a custody dispute over two daughters. Xu claims his former partner owes him millions in expenses he covered over the years, but he has not publicly responded to claims that he has fathered hundreds of children. A 2022 video linked to Xu showed dozens of young boys in a mansion rushing toward the camera while shouting “Daddy!” in Chinese, according to the Journal.
A Duoyi spokesperson told the Journal that “much of what you described is untrue,” though they did not provide specifics.
Reports suggest that Xu’s efforts to build a family dynasty may have been inspired by Elon Musk, who has been rumored—though he denies it—to share sperm with friends and family in an effort to expand his lineage. Xu has posted on Weibo imagining his children marrying Musk’s children.
In 2023, a California judge heard petitions from Xu seeking parental rights for four unborn children, as well as eight others he had arranged through surrogates. Xu reportedly told the court he aimed to father 20 or more U.S.-born boys, believing them superior and planning for them to eventually take over his business. Many of his children are said to have lived in a mansion in Irvine, California, under the care of nannies.
The judge rejected Xu’s petition, leaving the unborn children in legal limbo and highlighting the growing industry of surrogacy services catering to wealthy Chinese clients seeking U.S.-born children.
